Target Shooting on a Sunday Afternoon (Blog 234)

One of many reasons why I enjoy living out in the country was in evidence Sunday afternoon. I had received a new Redhead Bi-Pod Shooting Stick in the mail and wanted to try it out. So I asked my son Mark and son-in-law David to come over and test it. Once they arrived, we discussed where was the best place to set up and the result was the driveway, as our test gun was a .22 rimfire rifle. The driveway has a downward slope and a woodpile is at the end of it.We each took turns and the consensus was that the shooting stick performed well and the rifle was on target. Imagine doing what we did in suburbia.This morning I awoke and while feeding the chickens, I heard both woodcocks and turkeys. I hope one of those gobblers behind our house has my proverbial name on it.
